Going through security is intense and to speed up the process and make it an easier experience you can do the following.
Remove all electrical items eg kindle, I pad, phones, and place in the tray. Place your bag of liquids in a sealable clear plastic bag.
Place your hand luggage and coat on the conveyer belt and pass through the scanner. Wait to be called and then pass through the metal detector machine when asked by the security guard. If you are wearing a belt, jewellery, watches and some footwear you will be asked to remove it before you pass through the detector.
Heathrow give out free plastic bags so take one and keep hold of it as in Germany you will have to pay for it on the return journey if you don't have one.
